The patches 1 & 2 are only about the "enable" gpio for the bridge, it's
unrelated to the VCC regulator introduced in patch 3 & 4.
Maybe the commit message should say:
> The SN65DSI8x EN signal may be hard-wired to VCC, or otherwise
controlled[...]
But I copied the message from bbda1704fc15 ("drm/bridge: ti-sn65dsi86:
Make enable GPIO optional").

This is for use-cases where there is no GPIO the kernel can use, to
control the EN pad of the bridge. Thus make this gpio optional in
bindings and driver.
